Underworld In Myth, Magic And Mystery In Myth, Mystery And History

"The Underworld in Myth, Magic and Mystery" reveals that ceremonies have always been conducted in secret underground spaces throughout the world where drama and music accompanied the rituals. Death always has been an enigma to humanity. Rituals were developed in each culture to teach humanity about life, death and the afterlife. The reader is taken on a journey of discovery into prehistory and history, tracing the myths and Mysteries that veiled hidden knowledge about dying and death. The views of present-day psychotherapists, psychoanalysts and depth psychologists on the place of the Underworld in modern life are given. Near death experiences and the existence of a "God-Spot" in the brain that predisposes us to be religious are considered.Baggs, Sydney is the author of 'Underworld In Myth, Magic And Mystery In Myth, Mystery And History', published 2002 under ISBN 9781591096535 and ISBN 1591096537.
